Caran d'Ache Limited Edition Spirit of Qatar GP Gold Collection
Caran d'Ache Limited Edition Spirit of Qatar GP Gold Collection
As a tribute to one of the world’s most fascinating countries and the incomparable richness of its culture, Caran d’Ache has created an exceptional new writing instrument.
Qatar is a culture in which calligraphy and writing have become an art form and architecture is inspired by words and texts. The East has developed its graphic styles over thousands of years and has written its story with great elegance. La Maison de Haute Écriture is celebrating Qatar with a limited, numbered edition that brings together the symbols that make the country’s identity. The two writing instruments blend several historical influences, highlighting the geometric arabesques and the legendary horses that have made Qatar’s reputation over the centuries. They even integrate the colours and design of the national flag. Great care has been taken with every detail, particularly in the exact alignment of the two colours and the powerful yet delicate engraving of the animals.
The vigorous, graceful horses stand facing each other proudly on the cap. Majestic drawings enhance the coloured lacquer while the impressive gold or entrancing silver gleam with a fascinating sparkle. Burgundy and white announce the colours of Qatar and accentuate the sheer nobility of the body. And the ring, with its motifs taken directly from Islamic art, confirms the pens as works of graphic poetry. These are art objects that incarnate beauty and subtlety for the delight of all those who love the Orient or who treasure unique objects.
